The 2023 Mitsubishi Triton carries a braked towing capacity of up to 3000 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Mitsubishi Triton is also known as Mitsubishi Forte, Strada, Dodge Ram 50, Plymouth Arrow Truck, Mitsubishi Mighty Max in markets outside Australia.
There’s 18-inch two-tone alloys with 265/60 R18 tyres and a full-size alloy spare, chrome grille highlights, door handles and mirrors (the latter with integral heating and turn indicators), side-steps, rear-step bumper, load tub-liner, LED dusk-sensing headlights/DRLs with halogen fog lights, rain-sensing wipers, reversing camera and rear diff-lock among numerous highlights.
The Mitsubishi Triton 2023 prices range from $28,600 for the basic trim level Single Cab GLX (4X2) to $65,450 for the top of the range Dual Cab Xtreme (4X4).
Let’s go back to basics here: Is there water in the reservoir? It might sound like a silly question, but many owners don’t think about routine maintenance like this, mainly because modern cars are so reliable in the first place.
If there is water in the reservoir, can you hear the washer pump motor when you hit the lever for the washers? If you can, then there could be a blockage in the line somewhere (it wouldn’t be the first time an insect or dust has blocked one of these tiny tubes). If you can’t hear the motor, the problem is most likely an electrical one and could be anything from a fried pump motor to a simple blown fuse.
Don’t be confused by the wipers working and the washers not; they’re two very separate systems.

The Mitsubishi Triton has a 2.4-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine producing 133kW at 3500rpm and 430Nm at 2500rpm, and it has a six-speed automatic transmission. This is a respectable pairing, and while it’s more sluggish than super, it still does the job.
Internally there’s keyless entry, leather-bound steering wheel, gearshift and handbrake, rear privacy glass, dual-zone climate control, multiple 12-volt and USB connections (including two USB ports for rear seat passengers), quality six-speaker infotainment system with 7.0-inch touchscreen and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay plus plenty more.
Official fuel consumption is 8.6L/100km on a combined cycle.
On test we recorded actual fuel consumption of 9.6L/100km, from fill to fill. The Triton has a 75-litre fuel tank, so going by those fuel-use figures we’d expect to get a touring range of about 750km, after removing 30km from the total 780km figure as a safe-distance buffer.
Although the Triton’s slim width is most noticeable in the cabin, there’s still ample space in the front seats for drivers and passengers of most sizes to find comfortable positions. By comparison, rear seat space is okay for two adults but too tight with three for any trip longer than a short commute.
The Mitsubishi Triton GLS can accelerate from 0-100km/h in approximately 10 seconds.
Internally the load tub measures 1520mm long, 1470mm wide and 475mm deep. With 1085mm between the rear wheel housings, it will easily take a 1200 x 800mm Euro pallet but not a standard 1165mm-square Aussie pallet. It’s equipped with a full tub-liner and six anchorage points.
